3.0 out of 5 stars aural bubblewrap, October 22, 2002
This review is from: Ellis Island (Audio CD)
Ellis Island Sound the band is Pete Astor and David Sheppard. Ellis Island Sound the album is dance music with the edges rounded off, hazy instrumental mellotronica with a simple formula explored over eleven pieces; lightly "jam" in the studio with live drums and keyboards, post some tape loops and minimal guitar strains - voila! Instant Ibiza success. Occasionally rising to midtempo ("Olympic 2020") or dropping some slight funk, as in the handclaps of "Cyanide," even some seagull caws and jaunty xylophone for variety ("Your Twisted Sister") you still can't escape the feeling that they're one ingredient shy - the hook - from pristine chill pop. Think pastel Fila Brazilla reinterpreting Blue States for reference. So yes, it's a tad soft, and couldn't be safer if encased in bubblewrap; still beats 75% of those chillout compilations out there.
